COLONY is inspired by our love of the Movie Colony neighborhood of Palm Springs. One of the most sought-after Palm Springs areas, “The Movie Colony” was once known for housing some of Hollywood’s most notable movie stars. Located adjacent to the wondrous San Jacinto mountains, this neighborhood is now known for its cool restaurants and hip, vintage hotels. We love spending our mornings strolling the neighborhood, where we enjoy the mid-century modern architecture and clear blue skies. Our evenings filled with cocktails amongst friends and dining under the stars with our COLONY candle burning close by. We hope COLONY helps transport you to this special place.

Love these candles! They smell wonderful, burn great, and don’t contain nasty ingredients. The customer service is superb! One of many candles broke in-transit and they sent another one out within the day!

Amazing!

Oh my goodness, I love this fragrance! I thought Lido was my fave, but Cassia might have changed my mind. Truly such beautiful, long burning, rich, long lasting scent. This are the best candles!
